Psalms 71:1-10

1 In you, Yahweh, I take refuge. Never let me be put to shame.
2 Deliver me in your righteousness, and rescue me. Turn your ear to me, and save me.
3 Be to me a rock of refuge to which I may always go. Give the command to save me, For you are my rock and my fortress.
4 Rescue me, my God, from the hand of the wicked, From the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
5 For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh; My confidence from my youth.
6 I have relied on you from the womb. You are he who took me out of my mother's womb. I will always praise you.
7 I am a marvel to many, But you are my strong refuge.
8 My mouth shall be filled with your praise, With your honor all the day.
9 Don't reject me in my old age. Don't forsake me when my strength fails.
10 For my enemies talk about me. Those who watch for my soul conspire together,
